Roll on May!

Well, this is sweet.

Since news broke that Westlife would kick off their first tour in seven years next summer, it’s safe to say we’ve had their hits on loop.

The tour which kicks off on May 25, will see the boys playing back-to-back nights at Belfast’s SSE Arena (May 25 and May 26), as well as a tour-ending gig at Dublin’s Croke Park on July 5.

And now, ahead of their reunion, it’s safe to say Shane Filan is already dreaming of taking to the stage in Croke Park, sharing a throwback snap from when he was seven years old, the 39-year-old said:

“With my 3 brothers Peter,Finbarr & Liam 32 years ago in Croke Park! By the look on my face I was dreaming about it then.”

We’re beyond excited for this gig.

The tickets go on sale next week and, we’d imagine, are going to be selling very fast – so you’ll have to move quickly if you want to get your hands on them.

Alternatively, you can also get access to the pre-sale tickets – provided you pre-order their upcoming album.

Fans that pre-order a copy of the upcoming Westlife album from the official store before 12pm on Monday, October 22 will get an exclusive code for early access tickets to the 2019 UK & Ireland tour.

The pre-sale starts at 9am on Tuesday, October 23 – and the tickets go on general sale from Thursday, October 25 at 9am.

Bring it on!
